Why Visit Danube Tower Vienna?

360° Views of Vienna and Beyond

High-speed lifts whisk you to the observation terrace at 150 metres in about 35 seconds. From here, take in a full 360° panorama over the Danube, the city skyline and the surrounding countryside, with views of up to 80 km on a clear day.

Dine in the Revolving Turm Restaurant

At 170 metres, the Turm Restaurant slowly rotates while you enjoy Austrian cuisine, so the view changes with every course. Just below, the revolving Turm Café serves Viennese coffee-house classics. The restaurant opens Wednesday to Sunday, and reservations are required.

Europe's Highest Slide

The Turm Slide starts at 165 metres and spirals about 40 metres down in just 7–9 seconds, reaching 18 km/h. It's a must for thrill-seekers aged 6 and up (minimum height 110 cm), running daily from 11 AM, weather permitting.

A Vienna Icon Since 1964

Opened in April 1964 for the Vienna International Garden Show, the Danube Tower has been part of the skyline for over 60 years. At 252 metres, it's still the tallest structure in Austria.

Donaushop and Donaupark

Back on the ground, pick up a keepsake at the Donaushop, then stroll through Donaupark, the green space surrounding the tower. It's a relaxing way to round off your visit.
